Compactifications of Type IIB Strings to Four Dimensions with Non-trivial Classical Potential
Type IIB strings are compactified on a Calabi-Yau three-fold. When CalabiYau-valued expectation values are given to the NS-NS and RR three-form field strengths, the dilaton hypermultiplet becomes both electrically and magnetically charged. The resultant classical potential is calculated, and minima are found. At singular points in the moduli space, such as Argyres-Douglas points, supersymmetric...
متن کاملDuality of N = 2 Heterotic – Type I Compactifications in Four Dimensions ⋆
We discuss type I – heterotic duality in four-dimensional models obtained as a Coulomb phase of the six-dimensional U (16) orientifold model compactified on T 2 with arbitrary SU (16) Wilson lines. We show that Kähler potentials, gauge threshold corrections and the infinite tower of higher derivative F-terms agree in the limit that corresponds to weak coupling, large T 2 heterotic compactificat...
متن کاملHeterotic compactifications and nearly-Kähler manifolds
Recently, a lot of attention was devoted to the study of compactifications on manifolds with reduced structure group. Such manifolds usually appear when one considers generalized compactifications in the presence of non-trivial fluxes. It is well-known that purely geometrical compactifications are supersymmetric if the internal manifold admits a covariantly constant spinor or in other words it ...
متن کاملFlowing to four dimensions
We analyze the properties of a model with four-dimensional brane-localized Higgs type potential of a six dimensional scalar field satisfying the Dirichlet boundary condition on the boundary of a transverse two-dimensional compact space. The regularization of the localized couplings generates classical renormalization group running. A tachyonic mass parameter grows in the infrared, in analogy wi...
متن کاملSupersymmetry in Four Dimensions
We study four dimensional chiral N = 1 supersymmetric theories on which the scalar manifold is described by Kähler geometry and further, it can be viewed as Kähler-Ricci soliton. All couplings and solutions, namely BPS domain walls and their supersymmetric Lorentz invariant vacuums turn out to be evolved with respect to the soliton. Two models are discussed, namely N = 1 theory on Kähler-Einste...
